[yocto] [meta-mingw] /etc/ld.so.cache dereferencing problem extracting in mingw. workaround

[J.J. Garcia]

Hi all,

I'm using poky/meta-mingw (master for both) and when im deploying the
tarball into mingw i have dereferencing problems with /etc/ld.so.cache. It
is not possible to create the symlink (not included in the tarball after
inspection) so the linker fails resolving.

I've also build the core-image-minimal and deployed in an x86 unit and i
have copied the /etc/ld.so.cache from there to the mingw setup and now the
$CC works fine after sourcing the environment options for a very basic
hello-world.c source.

Now i realized that for daisy branch there is an entry dealing with this
issue, didn't check in detail.

machine-sdk/*-mingw32.conf: Disable SDKTAROPTS
<http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-mingw/commit/?h=daisy>

Is it expected to be ported to the master?

is it recommended to go for poky/meta-mingw both for dizzy branch? I tried
before mixing poky/dizzy and meta-mingw/master and i had issues with
gdb-cross-canadian_7.8.1.bbappend version number, so..???

Thanks in advance,

Regards

JJ
